MMIC chipset for wideband multifunction T/R Module

Summary form only given, as follows. This paper reports on the design, fabrication, and test of key MMIC components developed for wideband Transmit/Receive Module applications in the framework of a bilateral research program at system level between Italy and Sweden MoDs (M-AESA) with technological studies performed in order to guarantee the feasibility of main hardware critical aspects. The chip set comprises a multi-function phase-amplitude control chip (“core-chip”) and two wideband HPA MMICs.
